I'm in the middle of watching Fresh Gear and this ad for A+ cert came on. Boy, no wonder there are too many A+ certs and MCSE certs now, these so called IT school are really advertising their stuffs.

The bad thing is, most of the certs will bring bad name to few highly qualified and experience technical ppl. For example, today one of my computer desktop customer proudly claim that he's A+ certified but gosh, he scared to replace his floppy disk drive in fear for short circuiting the computer :D

opps ... gotta watch future fighting machine ...

A+ certification is worthless any more for that reason - everybody and their grandma is A+ certified. Plus I'll bet you half of the MCSE-certified bozos out there couldn't even tell you the difference between a domain controller and a pile of sh1t...

they're not good for experienced workers, but I still here they are good jumping off points for college students/entry level workers.
